Nolan, 16 years old, VA

Nolan is a funny and easygoing young man who found a sense of belonging through skateboarding while moving between foster homes. Skateboarding has taught him resilience and the importance of getting back up after a fall. Now living in a foster home and working hard in school, Nolan dreams of opening a skate shop where every kid can borrow a board and helmet regardless of their financial situation. He loves helping beginners learn new tricks and hopes to share his passion for skateboarding with others one day.
